How can we integrate Microsoft Dynamics 365 Customer Service with our platform via API or Power Automate for real-time data sync, and does this require Microsoft approval for production use?

We’re building a private integration where our customers can connect their Microsoft Dynamics 365 Customer Service environment to our product using Power Automate flows and webhooks.

Here’s the setup:

  • Customers integrates into Dynamics through our platform
  • We listen for updates to incidents (tickets)

It sends real-time data via webhook to our system

We also offer an OAuth-based connection for fallback data pulls

We’re not listing this on AppSource, and this integration will be tenant-specific, opt-in, and private.

Do we need to go through any Microsoft certification or review process for this setup?

    Dear @Gideon Ebose

    Thank you so much for contacting Microsoft Q&A Forum. 

    Based on your description, I researched and found that there was no certification required if: 

    • Your integration is private and opt-in. 
    • It is not listed on AppSource. 
    • It is used only by specific tenants. 
    • You use OAuth 2.0 and follow Microsoft Entra ID best practices for authentication. 

    Microsoft only requires certification for public connectors or AppSource listings. 

    Besides that, Microsoft provides a wide range of integration patterns for Dynamics 365, including: 

    • Webhooks 
    • Power Automate 
    • Azure Logic Apps 
    • Dataverse Web API 
    • Business Events 

    These are all supported for private, tenant-specific use without certification requirements. 

    You can consult in these articles: 

    I hope this information can help you in this situation and please kindly correct me if I misunderstand your concern. 

    Wish you a pleasant day!
